The Graphic Design pathway is aimed at recent graduates, as well as individuals with relevant industry experience, who wish to pursue their study of graphic design at postgraduate level and refine their creative practice.
Students will be able to further explore their use of visual language and its application in solving complicated design problems.
As a graphic designer, you will find your advanced practice is needed in a wide variety of areas within the creative industry landscape. Being part of the Contemporary Dialogues portfolio will enable you to develop different perspectives and thought processes within your own design practice. This in turn will help you to respond to and to accommodate diverse client needs and briefs.
What you will learn
The master’s Contemporary Dialogues portfolio at Swansea College of Art offers a unique postgraduate experience.
Graduates and professionals from a wide range of specialities benefit from multidisciplinary learning together with expert lecturers and a broad range of facilities.
You will have the opportunity to drawupon experiences and knowledge from across the different pathways and reflect this in your own personal study.
The research environmentbenefits greatly from the inputof our teaching staff and visiting lecturers, most of whom are research-active artists, designers, and theoreticians of national and international significance.
In the first part of the programme, you will complete a series of taught modules. You will participate in multidisciplinary exchanges, through seminars and lectures involving students from all programmes within the Contemporary Dialogues portfolio, to stimulate new perspectives and challenge directions. The cross-fertilisation of ideas through such dialogues is expected to promote a rethinking of the perceptions and production techniques appropriate to your discipline.
Throughout the taught part of the programme, you will be expected to undertake material investigations and research into contemporary themes, with consideration given to environmental, economic, social, and cultural issues.
We normally require an undergraduate 2.1. However, we also consider candidates with relevant experience and aim to interview all applicants. Where possible, we invite prospective students to experience a day of teaching to see if it suits their expectations.
